I can't speak for plans on backporting, but staggering the cronjobs so
cron never starts two jobs at the same time should mostly work around
the issue.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

This seems to be bug #259293, but I am filing a new one as I haven't seen this in some time. Twice in the last week my ~/Private directory unmounted. Both times /tmp/ecryptfs-<user>-Private was '0'. Both times, the symlink in the unmounted ~/Private was not present.  I have a cron job that runs every 10 minutes that I can see in syslog:

Apr  9 11:15:04 hostname CRON[22771]: Mount of private directory return code [0]

It could be that bug #259293 is simply 'mostly' fixed and I coincidentally hit this twice in the last week, or it could be a new bug (I don't know).
